First, figure out the the specific verbal issue(s) you’re struggling with. For most, it’s subject-verb agreement (it was for me).

Then just focus on doing those types of problems over and over again. For almost all verbal, there are tons of resources available — does not need to be GMAT-specific as long as they address your particular issue.

Eventually, a lightbulb just goes off. And then you’ll start catching mistakes in everything you read forever. Good luck op!

Hi all - figuring out loan options. Does anyone know if it’s better to choose:

Or how to calculate the better option?
